our Story

charming cafe-brasserie, gallery & auction house; with a french twist.

Café Lautrec is a destination for lovers of fine food and art. Our adjoining Gallery holds a collection of the odd, absurd, rare and exquisite antiques, collectables and jewellery.

Items from our weekly online auction at smallsauction.com, are also present within the Café on Saturdays and the collection of antiquarian books is for those interested in our curation of items that each possess and tell their own unique history.

Co-owner Mark Duff, is a numismatist (a specialist of coins) for over thirty years now, and subsequently holds an abundance of knowledge for those interested in collecting, buying, or selling antiquities.

Café Lautrec embodies our love and passion for the unique, eclectic and unusual pieces of history, from fine jewellery to rare artefacts.  

The pieces that fill our gallery space have been collated for over 40 years; ranging from rare artist sketches, bank notes, and (of course) coins - perfect for the avid collector; alongside an exquisite range of antique & vintage gemstone jewellery.

Open 7 days a week from 7.30am - 4.00pm for Breakfast & Lunch, alongside our weekly auctions, you can share the experience that Smalls Auctions, Trésors, and the French Fare of Café Lautrec have to offer.
